UPS and Battery Care
For the best preventive maintenance, keep the area around the UPS
clean and dust-free. If the atmosphere is very dusty, clean the outside of
the system with a vacuum cleaner.
For full battery life, keep the UPS at an ambient temperature of
25°C(77°F).
Storing the UPS
If you store the UPS for a long period, recharge the battery every
6 months by plugging the UPS into a power outlet.
Replacing Batteries
Before replacing the battery, make sure that you read the safety
information below.

current. The following precautions should be observed: 1) Remove watches, rings,
